Why Franchise Your Business?

by Martin S. Approved Franchise Opportunities

Life is all about pursuing one’s dreams in a manner that has integrity. Success is the progressive realisation of a worthwhile dream. Some of that dream may involve building a business. You can do this as an employee, as an independent entrepreneur, as a franchisee, or as a franchisor.

Franchisors find that the relationships that connect a franchise community will work best for its particular business type.

The franchisor’s responsibility in the relationship is to offer a sound business concept and operating system, capital to grow the business, a marketing framework and strategy to grow the brand, complete training and support in running the business, a plan to anticipate and increase growth within the targeted market, and a culture that franchisees can respect.

The franchisee’s responsibility is to operate the business according to the franchisor’s standards, find and work with customers, and supply capital to the franchisor in the form of initial franchise fees and ongoing royalty payments. When this relationship works, it’s unbeatable. When it sours, it can adversely affect a lot of people.

However, this arrangement doesn’t necessarily have to apply to all businesses. All businesses would not make suitable franchises. If a business is built around the owner’s personality and not a product or service that’s easily replicated, it probably should not be a franchise.

If it doesn’t have broad geographical appeal and is more suited to fit local clients’ needs, it probably should not be a franchise. If the product or service doesn’t reach a growing market, then it also should probably not be franchised.

However, for some businesses, franchising can be a ticket to smart growth - growth that is necessary to building the business.

Franchising will allow those who buy into franchise opportunities - the system - the franchisees - to build out the business, making the franchise more efficient and profitable, which allows franchisees to become wealthier.

These businesses will use the initial franchise fees to build the system’s units and infrastructure, which gives it an advantage over other companies that rely on private investors for their capital.
